Then explain the blur pattern just to the right of Vern's photo...
You guys are unbelievable.. First of all, if would someone want to fake it, then he doesn't have to photoshop a stupid skype screenshot. You can simple make
new skype account with same picture and name. And why to hell does it even matter, we will see in few days if it goes on cryptsy or not.
Sorry, but you're really ridiculous with cryptsy and this conspiracy things.

The blur is from the poster smudging info he want to keep private,what do you think it signifies?
I mean that the blur suddenly cuts off at the right edge of the photo, and therefore looks like the screenshot was first blurred and then the photo was copied there afterwards. If your on a laptop try to tilt the screen backwards a bit, you will see it clearer.
Don't get me wrong I am invested in this coin and have all interest for it to succeed, but I just find it weird how that looks.
what I'm gonna say is not about this case here... it's a general advice for people who are drawn to this kind of conclusions:
a) how much work would it be if it was fake and made not to look "suspicious"?
I recon less than blurring parts of the picture. just make a screenshot of only the text and simply state it's Vern, or copy parte the picture ontop of another picture without blurring anything....
b) this is not a thing that's far in the future anyway. why make a claim that will be proven false next week? makes no sense
c) motive alone proves nothing. that is the go-to "proof" of conspiracy theorists. make up some motive, even if it's a bat shit crazy one, like "Bush wanted war, so he blew up the twin towers"
motive is often nothing than your own projections onto a subject.
e.g. people who already subconsciously sympathize with Muslim extremists anyway cause they hate the Jews, project a convenient "motive" onto someone else, who not only takes away a feeling of guilt, but also takes the blame and reinforces their own beliefs
it's a circular way of thinking that can not be proven wrong OR right in the mind of the believer. and that's what makes it so dangerous. it locks you into a state of mind that limits your capability of doubting your own beliefs
think about that... just some general advice to the "cui bono" crowdI didn't say there is any motive. I'm just saying it's really weird. The only plausible explanation I can come up with is they wanted to not show his real Skype picture. This doesn't really affect my view of EAC though, at least not yet.
There is nothing fake about the screenshot mate, I took it myself, I blurred out important info myself, that's his original picture and that's the same pic he uses on his twitter stuff, nothing was altered, pasted, removed, replaced. Contact Paul yourself and ask him to quantify it
